Privacy Policy

Introduction

DeepBlocker Light ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Chrome extension and web application handle information when you use our AI-powered scam detection service.

TL;DR: We don't collect, store, or sell your personal information. Your privacy is our priority.

Information We Collect

Text Content for Analysis

When you use DeepBlocker Light to analyze text:

• The text you select is sent to our API for AI-powered scam detection
• Text content is analyzed using advanced AI language models
• The text content and analysis results are stored in our secure database
• Stored text is used to build a community-driven scam detection database
• This helps improve our AI models and protect other users from similar scams
• We do NOT sell or share this data with third parties for marketing purposes
• All data is stored securely with encryption and row-level security

Anonymous Session Tracking

We use client-side session tracking to enhance your experience:

• A random UUID (session ID) is generated in your browser's local storage
• Session IDs are anonymous and cannot be linked to your identity
• Used only to count how many analyses you've performed (to show optional email capture after 5 checks)
• No personally identifiable information (PII) is collected or stored

Email Addresses (Optional)

After 5 scam checks, we offer an optional prompt to save your email:

• Providing your email is completely optional and can be skipped
• If provided, your email is associated with your session ID
• Used only to send you a summary of your analysis history
• We will NEVER sell, rent, or share your email with third parties
• You can request deletion of your email at any time
